Chapter 674: Hua Ruohan is just a long-term worker
"Brother Haichuan, it's been hard all the way, sit, come here, serve tea!"
Seeing Dong Haichuan walk in, Shi Dafa said with a smile, his righteous brother really has nothing to say, he has been running for the Taiping Army for days, from Shanghai to Yingzhou, and then from Yingzhou to Huainan, running for no less than 2,000 miles, these more than 20 days, almost all of them have been used to hurry, and he is in his sixties, but he can't stand such a toss.

Dong Haichuan was not polite, sat straight on the chair, took a sip of tea, and said, "Yiwang, I don't think I need to say, you should also know where I came from Guo Ye, right?" ”
Shi Dakai nodded, waiting for Dong Haichuan's next words.
"This time, I came from Yingzhou, Yiwang, I have already got a promise from Guo Ye, as long as Yiwang is willing to surrender, then Guo Ye is willing to come to the Taiping Army camp alone to negotiate with you, and he is also willing to ensure the safety of all the soldiers of the Taiping Army, but, I don't know what you think?"
Shi Da was shocked and asked, "Guo Ye is really willing to come?" ”
Dong Haichuan nodded and sighed: "The generals under him are naturally unwilling, as the commander, once there is a little problem, then they will be scattered, from ancient times to the present, the soldiers are not tired of deceit, no one dares to guarantee that there will be no accidents during the period, however, Guo Ye is willing to come, so what can other people do?" I don't know where this kid got so much faith in you, but to be honest, I always feel like he even has an urge to worship you......"
Shi Dakai smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Haichuan, are you kidding, he Guo Ye admires me?" Let's not say that I have never known him in my life, and I have no intersection, now I am already trapped in the city of sorrow, and I have more than 100,000 troops in vain, but I am forced by Guo Ye to be restrained, although I have not officially started the war, I am already at a disadvantage......"
Dong Haichuan smiled: "How do I know? However, since you don't have any certainty now, what's the use of worrying about it? Why not consider my proposal? Is there anything more important than the life and death of these hundreds of thousands of Taiping Army soldiers and the suffering of these millions of Li people? ”
Shi Dakai shook his head and replied: "Brother Haichuan, what you said is light, this Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is not my Shi Dakai's Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and this Taiping Army is not my Shi Dakai's Taiping Army, although they are all my subordinates, and even I have cultivated them single-handedly, but if I say that I will lead them all to surrender to the Qing Demon, do you think I can suppress the opposition below?" It's impossible! ”
Dong Haichuan was surprised: "Wing King, can't you use your prestige now?" ”
"No! Brother Haichuan, even if the Heavenly King is alive, it can't be! This is about the dignity of the Taiping Army, no matter what, we have to fight again, if we are really defeated, we have nothing to say, but surrender without fighting, it is impossible, I must personally meet this Guo Ye on the battlefield for a while! There is more than one famous general in the world, Guo Ye, as a famous general, everyone has their own dignity, and this dignity must be defended with blood and fire! ”
Shi Dakai replied firmly, "Of course, if the Taiping army is defeated and convinced, there may still be a chance to ......."
"You don't have any chances......"
Dong Haichuan laughed astringently, "Yiwang, I told you, if you talk about military ability alone, maybe you and Guo Ye are not equal, but the current contest is not just a matter of personal military ability, whether it is Baoding Town, or the three towns of Shandong, their combat power is far above the Taiping Army, and Guo Ye has a strong logistics supply, Shandong Province alone, can support the continuation of this war, there will be no worries, the most important thing is that Yiwang, you have no source of arms now, But Guo Ye's sources of arms are inexhaustible and inexhaustible, this alone is what you can do? ”
Shi Dakai frowned and asked, "Brother Haichuan, is there no chance at all?" Can you go to Shanghai for me, and help me procure a batch of arms......"
Dong Haichuan smiled bitterly: "Yiwang, there is absolutely no possibility, it's not that I have no face, and it's not that the American Minister Hua Ruohan is unwilling to sell, but that the U.S. government has issued a ban on the sale of the Taiping Army, and the president of the United States personally signed the order, and that American dares to sell?" Moreover, you don't know yet, it turns out that the Americans sold you arms, it was because Guo Ye allowed them to be sold, and now you are fighting against Guo Ye in person, who dares to sell them to you, and now Guo Ye has a high reputation in the United States, and he is simply catching up with the commander of the three armed forces in the United States! His influence on Americans was too great, and this embargo was what he asked the President of the United States to ......"
Shi Da was shocked with joy, his face was full of incredulity, and he exclaimed: "Brother Haichuan, this Guo Ye also has such a great influence on Americans!" ”
"Not only that, the United States can't sell you arms, there are other reasons, because Guo Ye is one of the backstage bosses of this American arms company, Hua Ruohan is just a long-term worker for him, in this case, you can still expect him to sell arms to you......"
Shi Dakai was completely stunned, and after a long time, the Americans sold so many arms to him in a row, and the driving force behind it turned out to be Guo Ye! How exactly did this guy do it, he can't help but be able to influence the national decision-making of the Americans, and even the American arms companies are the boss......
Shi Dakai said dissatisfiedly: "Brother Haichuan, why didn't you tell me earlier, if I had known the news earlier, I would never have been so passive, wouldn't I have started looking for other arms dealers in advance?" ”
Dong Haichuan smiled bitterly: "Lord Wang, I have just learned the news not long ago, and I have always regarded Hua Ruohan as the big boss of the arms dealer, and this is only what Hua Ruohan told me not long ago......
Shi Dakai's heart was completely cold, his arms couldn't last long, but Guo Ye's arms were indeed endless! How can this battle be fought? Before the official start of the fight, it is already in an absolutely passive situation!
Dong Haichuan saw Shi Dakai's face cloudy, and then said: "Yiwang, in my opinion, you should surrender, the well-being of hundreds of thousands of Taiping troops, millions or even tens of millions of ordinary people, is all in your thoughts......"
Shi Dakai gritted his teeth and replied: "No, a war is inevitable, Brother Haichuan, don't say it, first, I have more than 100,000 troops, far better than Guo Ye several times, tell me to surrender, and my soldiers will not agree; Second, Guo Ye is not invulnerable, you also said that war does not only rely on tactics on the battlefield, but also on off-the-board moves; Third, even if Guo Ye's ammunition is endless, who can guarantee that these arms of his are not prepared for me? ”
